Best ways to fish it (demo)

Swim Jig Trailer Shallow grass, slow roll
Texas Rig Pitching to cover
Ball Jig Head Dragging sand or rock
Split Shot Natural subtle glides
Link to custom color order form
Length
2.0" hellgrammite-style body with segmented ribs and dense side legs for constant micro-movement.
Best for
River smallmouth, walleye, perch, and panfish feeding on nymphs, larvae, and bottom-dwelling insects.
Action style
Subtle leg pulse and body flex that reacts to current, drift, and light rod movement.
Where it shines
Rocky rivers, current seams, riprap, and hard-bottom areas where real bugs live.
Bug rule: most strikes happen when it’s barely moving—let current and gravity create the action.

Top 3 ways we fish it

Bottom contact without overworking.

Current Drift

Natural presentation through moving water.
  • Rig on a light jig and cast slightly upstream.
  • Maintain light tension as it ticks bottom.
  • Let the legs pulse as it drifts through seams.

Vertical Shake

Controlled movement on structure.
  • Drop straight down on rock or wood.
  • Hold bottom and add tiny rod-tip shakes.
  • Pause often—legs keep working on their own.

Drag & Stall

Slow, deliberate bottom coverage.
  • Drag short distances along the bottom.
  • Stop completely between moves.
  • Watch the line—bites are often just pressure.
